| | I just had one of the best days yet in Mexico. I got my grade from Nivel 1: 96%!! And it will transfer as 5 credit hours back to OU. I am muy feliz.
I am enjoying my Nivel 2 class so far as well. My conversation professor is a believer and I have heard a lot of good things about his teaching from multiple people who have had him before.
To top it all off, today I walked home from school alone. It was kind of nice to do an "Oklahoma walk" as my roommate Tiffany calls it. She is from Seattle and always walks a big city fast pace. Usually that is good so that we make it to class on time. So this afternoon I enjoyed the scenery and prayed for my friends as I walked.
I am going to share with you now a special part of our walk. On our 35 minute route to and from the university, we pass two preschools. Tiffany and I always smile and say Buenas Dias to the little kids and workers. One of the workers at the school we have dubbed "Senor Blue Eyes". He is guapissimo, a real "mango" as people say here. He is Mexican but he has brilliant blue eyes. Well, today maybe because I was feeling so on top of the world, I talked to him more! It was exciting and challenging to talk in Spanish to someone who really didn't speak any English. Now I know too that "Senor Blue Eyes" has a real name: Hugo. hmm. In Spanish it is not the prettiest of names, it really sounds more like "ooogo" because the H is silent. Oh well.
Hasta luego amigos! I hope you all are doing well. It is kind of weird to update this xanga thing again. Does anyone still read it? I honestly didn't use it at all this last year. It is a good way to let everybody know what is going on when I am abroad. Dios te bendiga.
